Description This report presents results from a process of qualitative research and data synthesis carried out with male and female youth aged 15-19 years in two bateyes (Estrellas and Yabacao) in the Dominican Republic (DR). The work was carried out to provide an evidence base for PSI DR's behaviour change communications programme for HIV prevention for young people living in the bateyes. The PEER method was used to generate in-depth narrative data about the social and economic context of these communities; relationships (including marriage and pre-marital relationships); and perceptions of reproductive health, including family planning (FP) and HIV and AIDS. Data were processed and synthesised using the FoQus on Segmentation approach, producing the dashboard instruments. The dashboards are a synthesis of research findings, designed to help marketers and programmers develop and position products, services and behaviour change interventions that are better tailored to the target group.
